Storaging: This Necessary Moment

Regin Igloria combines his ongoing community bookbinding project, North Branch Projects (NBP), with the excavation process of his recently vacated storage unit. The exhibition consists of sculptural pieces resembling household furniture and hybrid objects that house hand-made books, collages, and book-related ephemera, revealing the fraught movement between past histories and a hopeful future.

With the ultimate goal of converting his North Chicago home into a reiteration of the street-level, storefront space in Albany Park once occupied by NBP, the exhibition offers a glimpse into the literal and figurative transformation of familial accumulation.

Open Studio Projects showcases multiple examples of current work and will offer a related Community Bookbinding workshop for attendees to contribute to the project’s Neighborhood Archive, a collection of hand-bound books that are used for interactive pedestal stations located in the Chicagoland area.
